Pattens in Squares
The aim of the investigation is to find differences of small n x n squares in 10 x 10 square and then to see if there is any rule or pattern which connects the size of square chosen and the difference.
In order to find the difference of n x n square first step is to take nxn square and then multiply the corners diagonally. For example take 2x2 square and multiply its corners diagonally.
6 7 6 x 16 = 96
15 16 7 x 15 = 105
After doing that minus the small answer from the bigger answer. This gives the difference of 2x2 square.
105 – 96 = 9
After doing this I will check my answer using the nxn formula
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40
41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50
